[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1328595] Re: lvcreate -s hangs when overlayfs is in use
I did a little more testing. root@virt:~# uname -r 3.13.0-32-generic Actually the hanging seams to happen only when the overlayfs parts are on the logical volume being the snapshot source. Let's say /opt is a logical volume in the volume group virt. Case 1 (hanging): mkdir /opt/test/ cd /opt/test/ mkdir upper lower file_system touch lower/bla.dat mount -t overlayfs -o lowerdir=/opt/test/lower,upperdir=/opt/test/upper overlayfs /opt/test/file_system lvcreate -s -L 5G /dev/virt/opt -n vm_backup - Hang (see previous posts) Case 2 (not hanging): mkdir /opt/test/ lvcreate -n test -L10G virt mkfs.xfs /dev/virt/test mount /dev/virt/test /opt/test cd /opt/test/ mkdir upper lower file_system touch lower/bla.dat mount -t overlayfs -o lowerdir=/opt/test/lower,upperdir=/opt/test/upper overlayfs /opt/test/file_system lvcreate -s -L 5G /dev/virt/opt -n vm_backup Snapshot created even through the overlayfs is in use (but on a different volume). So the work around for the moment is to use two types of logical volumes : 1 one type for use with overlayfs where one has to make sure that no one ever takes a snapshot of (at least until this bug is fixed.) 2. one type where overlayfs never gets used but where snapshots can be taken from. May be this helps someone running into this issue. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1328595 Title: lvcreate -s hangs when overlayfs is in use Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: I am using xbuntu 14.04 LTS in combination with KVM, lxc, logical volumes and overlayfs.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1328595] Re: lvcreate -s hangs when overlayfs is in use
When I do the steps: sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get dist-upgrade I do not get a new kernel. Anyway, the Kernel version on the system seams to be more current then the one mentioned in the post above: df@feretti-virt:~$ uname -r 3.13.0-29-generic So either I am missing something or the bug does still exist. ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete = Confirmed -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1328595 Title: lvcreate -s hangs when overlayfs is in use Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: I am using xbuntu 14.04 LTS in combination with KVM, lxc, logical volumes and overlayfs.

As mentioned I already tested with a Kernel from 13.10 with the same result. To be sure I installed a minimal Ubuntu 13.10 in a virtual machine and did the steps to reproduce the issue. - The Problem existed in 13.10 as well. df@ubuntu-bug-check:~$ cat /etc/issue Ubuntu 13.10 \n \l sudo mount -t overlayfs -o lowerdir=/usr,upperdir=/mnt/delta overlayfs /mnt/test sudo lvcreate -s -n backup -L512M /dev/ubuntu-vg/root - Hang I will attach the dmesg output to this post. A test using a mainline kernel does not work, because overlayfs is not (yet) in mainline: df@feretti-virt:~$ uname -r 3.15.0-031500-generic df@feretti-virt:~$ sudo mount -t overlayfs -o lowerdir=/usr,upperdir=/mnt/delta overlayfs /mnt/test mount: unknown filesystem type 'overlayfs' So I will set the tag to 'kernel-unable-to-test-upstream'. Please change that in case there is a tag better fitting the situation.

After I started using overlayfs i realized that my backup based on LVM snapshots made the system go mad. As described in the manual I tried the kernel from 13.10 (3.11.0-xx) with the same result. A test against main line does not help, since it does not include the overlayfs support.
